Samuel Butler
-
We all like to forgive, and love best not those who offend us least, nor who have done most for us, but those who make it most easy for us to forgive them.
-
He has spent his life best who has enjoyed it most. God will take care that we do not enjoy it any more than is good for us.
-
All animals, except man, know that the principal business of life is to enjoy it.
-
To himself everyone is immortal he may know that he is going to die, but he can never know that he is dead.
-
If I die prematurely I shall be saved from being bored to death at my own success.
